    I know. Having commenced the weekend's shopping at the piss-alley, it might have been something to do with the somewhat large collection of ales and wine I had in my trolley. I can't see it being a pick-up line, as she didn't look like a local.

    Spent the whole morning cleaning the flat and everything looks lovely now. Hopefully it'll last more than a couple of days.

    I'm back with the old Spotify colours.  I can see it again!  (Dunno what they were thinking when they brought out the black on black version.)

    Me and Master Mudslide (9) went for a nice ride yesterday on our bikes in the sun. He's able to go fast enough for it to be a proper ride out now. Very pleased he finally understands how the gears work..

    While I was getting the bikes out I had a nice chat over the fence with @equalsql about his impending Tokai arrival. Very exciting...

    6 hours until my last-ever uni deadline has passed.


    Fortunately, I'm putting the finishing touches on it now. One exam in a few weeks and I will no longer be a student! :D

    .....aaaaaaand I'm home.

    Frikkin exhausted now thanks to the usual last-bugs that appeared and nearly killed the whole project. Still, it's fixed (mostly) and it's submitted, so there's nothing left to do but sit back, sip some bourbon, and snooze in the sun. :)

    I made a wikkid stir-fry at the weekend. Nuked up the remains of it for lunch. Much as I like bamboo shoots, I don't understand the pandas - I couldn't exist on nothing but bamboo shoots.

    Sprog unit 1 went for her kickboxing and karate grading last week, and tonight she found out that she did so well she double graded.

    Very proud of her, she worked hard for it.

    I had my solution defence for my final project this morning. It had all fallen apart late in the development (as usual) so I was missing a lot of the key functionality that I'd been aiming for, and I got a bit disheartened and turned in what I felt was a pretty poor dissertation overall.

    Anyway, had the demo this morning and to my surprise the lecturers were impressed enough by the analysis & foundations that I'd built everything upon (until it broke) that they're awarding me a strong 2:1 for the module which is enough to secure my 2:1 overall for my degree, even if I fail next week's exams!!! :D

    To say I'm happy right now is an understatement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

    I think it's going to be featured in some ford magazine anyway Mike. I'll put some pics up if not though. You know your schemes! I'm impressed. No mate it's straight semi matt camouflage grey with the dark sea grey cheat line/flash.
    We're possibly putting a contrasting grey union flag on the roof too if we get time.

    My Dad is Ex-RAF, so having an interest in aircraft has always  been with me. I have Marshalls Aerospace, literally across the road from work, and when it was still an operational flying station, RAF Wyton (the actual airfield) is around a mile from where I live. Also when Alconbury was still a flying station, the flight path was literally right over my house!!!!

    I spotted that from your other posts so well done dude and it is great to have choice.

    Couldn't resist the chance to do a stereotypical student jest.
